Daily Schedule
The day-to-day routine at Alpine Academy has been intentionally created to replicate life at home as much as possible. Because of this, our students are better equipped and more successful at maintaining their skills when they return home.
Campus Life
Graduations
Unlike traditional schools, graduation ceremonies at Alpine focus on a single student. Their accomplishment is celebrated with their family and many others closest to them during their journey. And every graduation ceremony ends with a very special Alpine tradition. View our video gallery to watch a selection of graduations, and hear first-hand the transformation our students have had.
Campus Life
Alpine Academy is located next to a multitude of easily accessible activities and recreation. Within minutes of campus are hiking and horse trails, swimming, bowling, golf, and volunteer opportunities. Alpine students are able to participate in day trips to museums, arts festivals, state and county fairs, concerts, amusement parks, theaters, and a plethora of additional outdoor activities like skiing, snowboarding, hiking, ice skating, water parks, and sledding. Short activities like the ones listed here occur weekly and vary depending on the season.
Physical Activity
At Alpine Academy, we seamlessly integrate physical fitness into daily student life, enhancing both individual talent and teamwork. Our state-of-the-art Fitness and Arts Center, along with expansive outdoor pathways and varied athletic fields, creates a vibrant environment for team sports, individual challenges, and casual recreation. Our quarterly intramural sports program fosters a spirit of friendly competition and community, featuring activities like basketball, softball, volleyball, and ultimate frisbee. Catering to all skill levels, from yoga enthusiasts to competitive athletes, we ensure every student enjoys beneficial physical activities that boost their well-being and teamwork skills.
Equine
Alpine Academy’s equine program is a core part of many students’ experiences, featuring fourteen horses that not only assist in therapeutic goals but also provide enjoyment and education in horsemanship, emphasizing safety, care, and management of horses. Students engage in learning about equipment, stall maintenance, feeding, grooming, and overall animal management. The program accommodates all skill levels, from beginners to advanced riders, and is pivotal in our therapeutic offerings, with experienced Equine Specialists and therapists collaboratively delivering impactful equine therapy using the EAGALA model.
Parent Weekends
Parents will have an opportunity to explore the campus and see the space that their child will be learning and living in. Parents will also have time to meet with therapists and school teachers to get an accurate assessment of how their child is doing here at Alpine Academy.
Adventure Trips
Alpine Academy participates in adventure trips where students and staff may for a day trip or camping overnight. During these trips the students have the opportunity to be challenged in a different environment, display the leadership and peer relation skills they’ve learned, and create memories that will last a lifetime. Experiences include hiking, rock climbing and bouldering, fishing, water sports, ziplines, and rope courses. The emphasis is on growth and development, just as much as fun. These trips are for all students and the cost is included in tuition fees.
